When the newness wears off.

Have you experienced being veerrry excited, attentive and motivated in a certain activity assigned to you, or perhaps to a new job or environment you are into....Ang aga mong gumising, pasipol-sipol pa, walang late, lahat ng utos "Yes Sir! o Yes Mam!" ang sagot, pasigaw pa yun ha. Pati ang bilis mong kumilos, dami mong nagagawa, parang wala ng bukas, lahat ng assign task tapos mo! walang tinitirang jobs, You're sweating hard but it really doesn't bother you much 'co'z you're accomplishing something you've never done before. Very productive, very efficient. Sabi nga ng kaibigan ko...."di ka sayang kaibigan"...Galing! Husay!

Then....after a considerable time doing the routinaries of effectiveness, parang ang bagal mo ng kumilos, parang wala ka ng gana, ang hirap ng gumising ng maaga at naging mabigat yata ng trabaho. Parang lahat sumasalungat sa iyo at nag-iisa ka na yata. Madalas mainit na ang ulo mo at feeling mo napag-iiwanan ka, pati blood pressure mo mataas na yata.....Where have all the magics gone?, where's the seemingly undying ember of optimism? Did the flame already died?

Yes!...things like these happens. And when it does approach you, don't be upset, throw that self-pity away out of your window. Here are some practical tips to get rid of those pessimism....

1. Keep yourself busy....
The more you are busy the less time you ponder negative thoughts.

2. Re-inforce optimism.....
Watch and read inspirational and lively stories.

3. Be not alone....
Keep it a point to be with a group of cheerful company most of the time.

4. Discover the special you....
Find your special talent.There is one for everybody, it's just waiting to be discovered.

5. Take a rest....
You maybe just too tired and mostly everyone tends to look dim when they're exhausted. Dwell on His Word and pray... :)

6. Lastly, take time to listen to others...
My mom says..."In order for you to forget the not so good situation you're in, listen to others with more grievous predicament."


Just do not let that bad feeling conquer you, because you can still contribute a lot to this hungry world. Don't provide a limit to yourself with regards to service and contribution.

If this doesn't work and the ill feeling still survives...ewan ko na lang, ganyan yata talaga pag menopause ka na.......LOL! Tawa ka naman...masyado kang serious, parang nasa ICU!

Fear thou not, for I AM with thee. Be not dismayed for I AM thy God. I will strenghten thee and will help thee. And I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

...worrying is the most time wasting activity some people indulge...
